If anyone knows how to replicate this, let me know. It may just be a one-off glitch. Here's how it happened for me:
I was performing the WARMING THE TIRES (SMOKE ON THE ASPHALT) Forzathon drifting challenge, where I had to achieve 7,000 drift points on a single lap.
I chose the setup you see in the videos below:
- Maple Valley Raceway Short Circuit
- Day
- 4:00 time limit
- 0 Drivitars
- 1992 Hoonigan Mazda RX-7 Twerkstallion
This produced about 500,000 CR from a Rivals bonus. For some reason, the event counted as a Rivals event. Notice there are no leaderboard entries. Perhaps it counted as if I scored #1 on a Rivals leaderboard? I have no idea.
I was able to replicate this until I restarted the game.
I did a test where I barely banked any drift score, and the Rival bonus reward was low, so it does depend on your skill.
Note: Some gamers dislike videos posted of glitches (as it may lead to unwanted patches), but this one is not reproducible. I can pull down this thread if this changes or if anyone feels that I should.
